Hi there and welcome to the first March edition of the weekly update. Let’s get right in to what is going on this week in the world of Asheron’s Call.

First, we would like to offer our congratulations to all of those people who have made it through the Colosseum. Those brave adventurers made it further than anyone else, and should be very proud of themselves and their friends. Nice work everyone!

We know that there have been some problems with the reward chest and the team has been trying to find a solution to the issue. Until we have found a solution, we ask that if you are looting the chest please make sure and take all of the items out of the chest before closing it. In trying to find a fix for the issues, we have found that this may help with some of the locking issues folks are having. In the meantime we are continuing to investigate the chests and I have asked that all of the people, who have completed the Colosseum but did not get to loot the chest, contact me via PM here on the forums. We are optimistic that a solution to this issue can and will be found.

This week the team is all about implementation of the March event content on our test servers internally. Working out the kinks and balance issues as well as just plain getting things to work the way they want them to. Just looking at everything going in for the month, I would say folks are in for a good time. From the looks of it there appears to be a little something for everyone, as well as a few new surprises which I have been sworn not to tell anyone about.

Last but not least I want to out a little heads up/advanced warning to all you movie makers out there. At some point this week I will be announcing all of the details to a little Make a Movie contest featuring AC. This is your chance to show off your crazy skills at making an Asheron’s Call movie. For now the only other tidbit I will give out is the theme, The Colosseum. Stay tuned for all the particulars later this week.


Well, that’s all for now. Everyone have a great week and see you all in Dereth!
